Chapter 51: The Price of Breaking Your Oath

It was almost a night after waking up from the memory, and the sky was gradually dawning, and the surrounding vision was gradually clear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"The way you look now...... Is it 'madness'? ”

I wiped tears from my eyes, sat up from the stream, and noticed Scarlet's eyes...... Still swirled in crimson tobacco.

Scarlet Leaf shook his head, "The power of Scarlet Leaf's Horcrux is considered to be the power of the Horcrux of the Enhanced System: Soul Twins - double your soul power and produce a dual personality: the surface personality, that is, Scarlet Leaf's original personality, was subject to the seal of her father six years ago and has stayed in place; And Scarlet Leaf's current personality, although it is not affected by the seal, will be disturbed by the power of the soul master in the body, so the eyes will become like this. ”

"You said it before...... Give all the 'souls' to Cao Pi? ”

"The soul of each Horcrux is not completely closely connected with the Emperor Spirit, as long as all the spiritual consciousness associated with the Emperor Spirit in the soul is extracted and attached to the Emperor Spirit, the five-dimensional ability of the Horcrux can still play its role, but it is impossible to improve it again; At the same time, the soul connection between the Horcrux and the Emperor Spirit was also broken, and there was no longer anything to do with each other. Scarlet leaf snuggled into my arms, "This is also ...... In the years that Scarlet Leaf has been living alone, he has been looking for a way to get out of this Emperor Spirit War. ”

"But...... Extract part of the spiritual consciousness of the soul...... And what about the price? ”

"The price is loss of consciousness." Scarlet paused for a moment, "This means that not only will it prolong the time it takes to regain consciousness through sleep, but things like sudden fainting will happen in life, but Scarlet Leaf has a dual personality, and even if one personality suddenly loses consciousness, the other personality will immediately take its place." ”

Though...... Sounds a bit mysterious.

But...... If it is really possible, even some of these costs seem to be within the acceptable range.

"Sister......" I hugged Scarlet Leaf tightly in my arms, "No matter what, now that I know the truth, brother, I will never let Scarlet Leaf leave my side again." ”

"Hmm."

"But what...... Sister Ji Meng and Sister Liyue are also important people for my brother, no matter what decision my brother plans to make next, we still have to rescue them today, defeat Cao Pi, and finally save the residents of the entire town. ”

"Scarlet Leaf will help too. I know the location of our family's Horcrux Scroll and Emperor Spirit Scroll. ”

To the west of the creek is the other end of the suspension bridge, and along the trail we can climb directly up the hill.

"This mountain is where the ancestral hall of our family's ancestral temple is located, so those two scrolls have always been kept in the ancestral hall?"

Scarlet Ye nodded, held my hand tightly, and suddenly stopped: "Brother Zixiu...... Have you made up your mind to strip the 'Emperor Soul'? ”

For this Emperor Spirit War, my father and Scarlet Leaf's parents were sacrificed because of this, and I personally have no desire for the jade seal of the country, it stands to reason that if I can leave this war, of course, the sooner the better.

But...... This kind of thing......

"When you find Sister Liyue, they ...... Let's talk about it. ”

After listening to my words, Scarlet Leaf stopped asking.

In fact, I still have a layer of concern in my heart.

Because of the hidden power of the scarlet leaves, it will definitely attract the pursuit of the so-called 'spirit domain' soul master, and when I don't have the strength, do I still have to rely on the scarlet leaves who are already crippled in soul to protect?

Protect this kind of thing...... It's always been what my brother did to my sister, and I didn't do it six years ago...... Right now...... It's still the same as before.

"Mercy Moon! Ji Meng! "On the trails in the mountains, I kept calling their names. Without me to lead the way, will they be able to find the ancestral hall...... Forget Ji Meng's words, Lianyue can rely on her, as long as Ji Meng follows her, there shouldn't be any big mess.

Seeing that they are about to arrive at the ancestral hall, I wonder if they are in it?

"Sister, let's see if my brother's eyes are still swollen?"

Scarlet smiled and reached out to touch my eyes, "It's as swollen as a ping-pong ball." ”

"The way I cried just now must have been ugly, right?" is so out of shape in front of my sister, I'm sorry for the wise and handsome self in my memory, and I don't know if Uncle Hong also erased my IQ when he erased my memory, I always feel that now is not as ...... as before What's that, it's not so charming, and the habit of bragging and farting is slowly starting to develop, only inheriting the appearance of my father, but not the strength under his mask, that's really bad.

Scarlet Leaf smiled and shook his head, "Brother Zixiu cries because he likes Scarlet Leaf." ”

"So...... Scarlet Leaf will also repay Brother Zixiu, all ...... Everything about Scarlet Leaf does. ”

The smile on my face came to an abrupt end.

At the entrance of the archway of the ancestral hall of the Cao Wei Sect Temple, a young man was standing. In his hand, he held a sword carved with a wolf's face, and was quietly looking at the words on the archway, and did not speak for a long time.

Cao Pi?

I protected Scarlet, covered Scarlet's mouth, squatted down, and gradually stepped back.

"Brother...... Cao Pi won't hurt you, he is also our ancestor. ”

The situation suddenly changed, and Scarlet Leaf grabbed my arm tightly and stepped forward, the crimson light on her arm wrapped tightly around me, and I had to follow her forward.

Wait a minute...... What exactly is this......

"If you come any later, I'll wonder if you're cheating on me, Scarlet. But the Horcrux Scroll and the Emperor Spirit Scroll seem to have been taken away. ”

"I've even given you an important soul, what's the point of deceiving you? As for those two things...... It was originally reserved for bait, but now it is not needed. Scarlet Leaf's words no longer reveal the childishness of a girlβ€”on the contrary, the tone of proficiency and maturity surprised me a little.

"Don't worry, brother. This is just to make you make up your mind to leave this Emperor Spirit War, Scarlet Leaf still loves Brother Zixiu deeply. ”

Leave...... Diling War?

The familiar ancestral hall, the lingering incense, stands the spiritual seat of many ancestors of the family. I was imprisoned by the crimson filament of light, which was attached to the pillar of the torii, and no matter how hard I struggled, I could not break free.

"It's just a momentary pain, as long as you endure it a little, it will soon pass." Scarlet rubbed her face against my cheek, "Brother Ruozi Xiu...... If you're still faint like before, Scarlet Leaf can also help you cover your eyes. ”

His eyes were covered by Scarlet Leaf's hand, and his originally cold body once again felt the temperature of Scarlet Leaf's body.

But this temperature ...... It's not as warm as I can bear.

"Scarlet Leaves...... You pulled out my Emperor Soul and wanted me to withdraw from the Battle of Emperor Spirit, I can understand this intention, but ...... Are you cooperating with Cao Pi to get him to take away the Emperor Soul that was extracted from my body...... What about that...... Boss Cao, it's ......"

"He helped me lure away my brother's Emperor Spirit, and I extracted the Emperor Soul for him, that's all." Scarlet Leaf pressed one hand to my chest, and gradually, tearing open my shirt, and then ...... A burning sensation went straight to my heart.

"If you do that...... I'll be sorry for Boss Cao......"

"The War of the Emperor...... For us...... It doesn't matter anymore, the existence of the Emperor Spirit...... Can it still be considered a life? It's just a parasite wrapped around a Horcrux. ”

Through a red circle of light, Scarlet reached into my body, feeling all the organs in my body tremble and my consciousness gradually blurred. Scarlet Leaf also let go of the hand covering my eyes, and both hands reached into my body together.

Oh, yes...... Boss Cao is just an emperor spirit...... With a useless Horcrux like me...... Even if you can live for a long time, you must not live to the end......

They are nothing more than dead Emperor Spirits, and Horcruxes are truly living beings......

And at this moment, in a trance-like vision, I realized that Cao Pi had moved his body, and the sound of metal colliding was surrounding my mind.

"Cao Zixiu...... Are you still worthy of being the boy of the Cao family who waits for me! ”

It was Boss Cao's shout. I saw the pitch-black shadow under his crotch surrounded by black mist, and the amber stone pupils of the Sky Sword Goshawk Carving in his hand were completely opened, shooting out countless red rays. Boss Cao, who was covered in blood, competed with Cao Pi's wolf Gu Bada sword and two swords, and his face was full of angry killing intent - like a god of war who had awakened from purgatory, standing up from the grave of ten thousand bones.

The Cao family's ...... Man?

Only you are ...... Only you are a traitor in troubled times, the Cao family...... You're the only one.

My words...... No matter how hard you try, how can you become as great as you?

Scarlet's hand sank deeper, and my consciousness was almost completely worn out.

"Cao Zixiu! You super! ”

Well...... Is this the voice of Retsuki?

There was still some crying in her voice?

If I die...... She's going to be sad too......

"You coward...... Coward! If you want to get out of this Imperial Spirit War, get out of the way! Anyway...... I'm never going to see you again! ”

So...... Did you hear our conversation......

If you don't want to see me......

That's not going to work!

I struggled to open my eyes, and saw the figures of Lianyue and Ji Meng in the distance, they were still holding two scrolls in their hands, the scroll of our Cao family's horcruxes and the scroll of the emperor's spirit?

"Sister ......"

When Scarlet Leaf peeled off my Emperor Soul, its own strength was also weakening.

I easily cracked the coiled crimson tobacco and grabbed Scarlet Leaf's hands. "I'm sorry...... Younger sister. I can't let Cao Pi get the emperor's soul. ”

"Even if it is...... This is what Scarlet Leaf wants, and it is also what his brother can do...... Can't my brother say yes too? Scarlet Leaf's face was full of disappointment for me, "You said it...... When we meet again, no matter what kind of wish Scarlet Leaf makes, as long as you can do it, you will definitely help Scarlet Leaf come true! Now that's Scarlet Leaf's wish! ”

"I can't...... I can't afford to lose that power. It has always been the elder brother who protects the younger sister, but if there is no strength, how can the elder brother protect the younger sister! ”

I pulled Scarlet's hands out of my body, and the pain in my internal organs continued.

Scarlet fell to her knees in frustration.

I staggered towards the Tsuki.

Liyue seemed to wipe the tears from her eyes, and she burst into tears and laughed, and threw out the Horcrux Scroll and the Emperor Spirit Scroll in her hand from a distance towards me.

I reached out my left hand and tried to catch the two scrolls.

"Brother...... Are you really going to trick Scarlet Leaf one more time? ”

I heard the sound of Scarlet Leaf in my ears.

The choked cry also makes people feel heartbreaking to listen to.

But...... Immediately afterward, a loud roar reached my left ear, which instantly lost sensation completely.

Then, in my right ear, I faintly heard the call of Ji Meng and Lianyue in the distance.

A blood flower bloomed from my left arm, and the severed arm slowly fell in the air.

A large knife made of crimson filament, with the blood of my left arm still stained on it, lay beside me.
